    I’m not particularly worried about myself. I’m fully vaccinated. The thing I find sadly fascinating is that so many people seem to not understand that the latest guidance on masks in airports/planes is to protect the unvaccinated from being infected by potentially infectious but asymptomatic vaccinated (or not) people. All the maskholes at the airport today either still don’t get the main point of masks over a year into this or else they don’t care about protecting people they don’t know.

    Full vaccination only means you got the one vaccine that was available to you. You arent covered from break-through infections, variants, and Lord knows what else by placing yourself in the path of several thousand “mask-holes “

    But by all means Please do carry on your purely-for-pleasure travel while deinigrating your fellow travelers.

He always said he would get one when it was finally approved and there may be many others who feel that way.
    A letter would be less intrusive, certainly.

    So should I be ‘cowering in fear’? That’s what all the anti vax idiots online would say I was doing if I ‘stopped living my life’. And since virtually all people in the hospital in the US with covid currently are non vaxxed I’ll take my chances.

    And it’s not like I traveled to some idiot red place like Springfield Missouri where they are running out of hospital beds because of low vax rates combined with the super transmissible, but still mostly vax blocked delta variant.

    And I will continue using to wear a mask, correctly, in crowded indoor places just in case I might be infected and not know it. Because that’s the kind of guy I am. One who doesn’t want to unknowingly and accidentally infect other people with a potentially deadly virus.

    So people with enough money to travel (so definitely not someone who couldn't get vaccinated because they feared getting in trouble for missing a day off the job(s) they work). And yet they don't get a vaccine. Pretty unsympathetic. What do they even think they are doing boarding a plane without getting vaccinated.

    oh gosh no! What you “should” do (remember, you asked!) is to stop with the “Idiots” “ idiot” and especially “mask-holes” terms to make your company more pleasant.

    Wouldn't it be so much more pleasant to read posts that are respectful of others and their views, oh I so wish this would happen. Seeing and respect for each others humanity is the basis or foundation of any human contact. Change always begins with me.

    I emailed the governor's office and state health department about mandating masks for outpatient services for vaccinated people, which I disagree with. I continue to look out of state for a place that will give me a mask free eye exam so I can actually see for the tests without my vision fogging up. I saw one place in Colorado that is mask optional but that is too far for me.

    I agree. A mask continues to protect one's self and others.

    Also agree with razz - Seeing and respect for each others humanity is the basis or foundation of any human contact. Change always begins with me.
